Adding
Let's write a program where we need to enter numbers from the keyboard, and as soon as -1 is entered, then we display the sum of all the entered numbers on the screen and exit the program. -1 should be included in the sum. Hint: One of the solutions to this problem uses the following construct: whi

That last one was a doozy! For future challengers, the placement of where you parse your integers matters!

So, you want to add -1 as well? Strange if we're breaking when that is entered.

Hi guys! To my mind, the Best way of learning the Codegym course is following. (1) Solve tasks by your own, using the Codegym help section, comments, or even web search - its really ok! Get used to it. (2) After you Verified a task, Download correct solution. >> Push the Help button in the task menu. (3) Correct your own solution in efficient and short way. Actually, it was the best way to correct my code and understand it. Sometimes I had Bullshit-code, dont know how it worked %)))))
